#2Sounds like a great book. I worked through nand2tetris ages ago and remember enjoying it as well.

#3The crafting interpreting asks the reader to use the visitor pattern, and this was quite a turn off for me, I stopped there.

Couldn't you write the interpreter without it?

This part confused me quite a bit so I turned it into the more verbose format by copy-pasting. I don’t like the boilerplate code generation either so I converted that part too. The whole book is still pretty interesting though.

Lolol weirdest reason to reject that book - 90% of production parsers are recursive descent parsers.

It probably has nothing to do with recursive descent parsing, which is intuitive, but with the visitor pattern as mentioned. I myself find it very distracting too.
